Atonement (2007) --> A bizarre and tangled tale adapted from the Ian McEwan novel, Atonement reveals the devastating consequences of a sexual encounter between a young couple from different economic classes when the act is misinterpreted by the girl's younger sister. Keira Knightley and director Joe Wright team up for a second time but Atonement significantly outshines Pride and Prejudice (their last film). Part love story, part war film, Atonement is a WWII period piece worth the accolades it has received since its release.
Matt Costa--> Matt Costa captured the hearts and attention of thousands of listeners when he opened in mid-August for superstar surfer/songwriter Jack Johnson at Deer Lake Park. Now Matt is embarking on a headlining tour, bringing his genuine, tender vocals and ambitious musical styling back to Vancouver for a performance at The Commodore on Feb 10th 2008
Push International Arts Festival-->The annual PuSh International Performing Arts Festival is one of Vancouver’s signature events. Produced over 19 days each January, the PuSh Festival presents groundbreaking work in the live performing arts: theatre, dance, music and various hybrid forms of performance. It attracts acclaimed local, national and international artists and their work.
